Lancaster County is requesting proposals for On-Site Auction Services of Unclaimed/Abandoned Property (Lancaster County Sheriff) --- Q&A --- Q1: Section III.C.2.h – Our standard minimum bid openings for vehicles and motorcycles are $50 and $25 respectively. We run absolute auctions where there are no reserves / set minimums and the highest bid wins. This format allows immediate disposal of assets and typically provides higher net returns than auctions with set minimums because there is increased bidding activity and buyer participation. Is the ability to allow the County to set these minimums a must-have requirement? A1: We would like to keep our standard, but with County approval the bids can change on a case by case basis.

Real Estate license is not required. Submitted: 7/10/2026 02:58:14 PM (CT) Q3: Can the County please provide historical sales information for the past two years of auctions related to this contract? A3: 2025: $65,005 2024: $99,525 Submitted: 7/10/2026 02:57:59 PM (CT) Q4: Would the County consider hosting the auctions online to reduce the need for additional staff and security while making the auctions accessible to a wider audience?
